fridge Exploded on the West Glare
Railway Bridge at Ennis.
LONDON, Aug 16-The Daily Ne,Us, re-
ferring to the Northwich election, SAYS:
"Seldom has any government year after
its formation met with such emphatic re-
buff Aroma or simulacher of the dissident
marty still fits about the lobbieS and benches
of the House of Commons, but in the con-
stituencies it is not to be seem"
The Morning Post is depressed over the
result, and urges the Conservatives to effect
that the country is changing it's mind in re-
gard to home rule.
The Daily Telegraph says: "The Union
ist converts have become perverts, and the
Abstentionists have returned to their Glad
stonien allegiance" The paper attributes
the result in Northwich to the weakness of
the Unionist candidate and campaign, and
begs the UnioniSt leaders to abandon the
belief that it is sufficient to send a candidate
to district with their blessing to secure
voters.
The Times says the government will make
a fatal mistake if they see in the recent
elections any reason for decreasing their
efforts to cope effectually with the forces of
disorder in ireland.
EARL CowPER'S ADVICE
Earl Cowper writes to the Times urging
the government to firmly support Earl Ca
dogan's amendment to the land bill To ac-
cede to the wishes of the opposition he says
would mean revision of all the rents fixed
in the last five years, which would inevita-
bly, lead to a block in the land court.
Mr. Drummer, the new Gladstonian men,
Der for the Northwich division of Cheshire,
took his seat in the House of Commons to-
day. He received an ovation from the
Gladstonites.
The government is still undecided as to
the advisability of suppressing the National
League. Two-thirds of the Conservative
members of Parliament are against imme-
date action.
The Standard now openly advocates a
coalition ministry. 1t admits that Mr..
Gladstone is still followed by the bulk of
the Liberals in the country through the
anomalous position occupied by the Union
lists The Cabinet will sit tomorrow to
decide finally upon the course of business
during the remainder of the session.

Der of Parliament, announced that the re-
cepts since the last meeting amounted to
e2, l38, Of which 81, 900 came from the Par
Gamentary Aid Society, of New York.
The Nationalists, he said, were on the eve of
success. The victory in Northwich virtu-
ally made Gladstone Premier. When Mr..
Gladstone brought forward his new edition
of his home rule measure, he Harris hoped
it would be an advanced one. If the land
lords got one half OF what Mr. Gladstone
offered them before they ought to be happy.
